where were our supporters? I could only see a handful of them

The shouts from the fans confused the ref to award a penalty. I could clearly see the "zeal" on the face of the Ref to please the home fans. Both the first and the retaken penalty were based on flimsy reasons.
The ref could not independently verify the call for a retake, she was clearly instructed.

So proud of our ladies.

I'm proud of the ladies today We fought like a soldier, the only error we made was coming from a dark skinned continent
Skin colour has nothing to do with the failure of Falcon to qualify

I can tell u didn't watched the match. We played against 4 teams. The French national team, Home fans(which is normal though), Referees, VAR even commentator

It was obvious that France couldn't win without some technical cheating...
Like our coach said, he didn't want to talk so as not to seem extreme, but the whole world saw what happened.

Shame on the referee and the VAR officials for loopsided officiating.

Heroines l'awọn omo mi! cool

Shame on Fifa!
What did the referee do? It was a clear penalty which the referee didn’t bother to call till she was called by the VAR officials and yes the penalty needed to be replayed cus the keeper legs were off the goal line and is also a yellow card offense. That’s just the new rule of the female World Cup and beside our girls were just defensive today which made France played all the game but couldn’t score. We should have been beating 5-0 or more if not for the defensive game we played

FIFA is gradually taking away the glamour of football as a game in the name of VAR and goal line technologies..really it sucks!

This game reminds me of the last general election in Nigeria

France = APC

Nigeria = PDP

Officials = inec

VAR officials =>Foreign observers ( they don't want to go back to home in body bags)
lol....What a comment!

Yinmu. Be deceiving yourself. There are many Grey areas in football and it is these Grey areas that they use to cheat us. How come AFRICAN TEAMS never benefit from all this. The ref just had to call VAR. The keeper no do pass wetin buffoon and the likes they do. You cannot know oyinbo man more than me. I don relate with them wella. I know their ways.

shocked shocked shocked


The referee and the VAR got the penalty call wrong. Our defender didn't push the French player that fell in the box 16. Retaking after losing the first was a real night time robbery.
Did you watch the game? Go and watch a replay of the foul and you will see wat she did and it was even worst than pushing a player

This is not about knowing Oyinbo man, is about the Nigeria vs France female team game we saw and beside, how are u sure Have related with Oyinbo more than I do? U sabi me before ni?
Re: Reactions To France 1-0 Nigeria. by baiaon(m): 1:11am On Jun 18, 2019
@ericmor Stop trying to sound intelligent.There was clearly a ploy by the officials to "push" france to the next stage and maintain the french public interest in the tournament.It has happened on many occasions before.There are always some favoured teams in competitions like this
Re: Reactions To France 1-0 Nigeria. by Nobody:
Fifa should start publishing social media accounts of officiating officers so we can always do justice. Praise the good ones, and make life miserable for the wicked ones. By the time they are thrown stones of words, their brain will be formatted. Who knows the social media account of those VAR officials, referee, and assistant referees?

Is not about sounding intelligent but the fact. Was there a foul? Yes. Was any of the keeper legs on the goal line when the first penalty was taken? No. That was why the ref explained to her again when they wanted to take the second penalty cus our keeper seems not to understand wat really happened. They played far better than us and the pressure was too much on the defense so I was expecting a goal at list. But our keeper really tried

There have been many penalties at this tournament.Some have been missed but the majority have been scored.NONE I repeat NONE have been retaken despite the goalkeepers being off the line when the ball is about to be struck but surprise,surprise the rule is implemented today when the host nation is involved in a match.My brother,travel outside nigeria and see

Pls show me one that the keeper legs were off the goal line before the ball was kicked? And you keep talking about favor as if France really needed to win the match to qualify. Why u keep talking about traveling out of the country like you know me before

We played against...
France
Referee
VAr
And that commentator...
I muted my TV and switched on commentary with Murphy ijemba.

However, I still salute the Falcons. Awesome Play.
Wish them luck with Germany on their next match. The attack was so poor against France.
Nothing awesome in that team. Nigeria didn't even pressurize them and their keeper. But Nigeria got cheated on.

MhisTahrah:
We were robbed, period.Who has the referee's IG and twitter handle?
Leave all those stories on twitter...the ref and var team were absolutely correct... A Nigerian player was in the box as well when it was taken the second time... U guys dint complain when the under 20 team played Ukraine and got a penalty and when we missed, he was asked to play again cos the keepers feet were not on the line and he received a yellow card as well...

We just had a single plan to defend all thru and that was not a smart approach

France needed to win for the public to still be interested in the tournament.To maintain the feel good vibes amongst the french populace

Stop talking about Oyinbo cus u don’t know them at all and for the France vs Nigeria game u don’t understand the rule and France did not need to win the game to keep peoples interest in the World Cup. You got all that all wrong. If you can send me one since u the one that noticed that penalties were taken the same way and d ref didn’t cancel it. Just 2 goal attempts compear to 22 and not a single shots on target for Nigeria and you are here talking about bad officiating. I bow o

When the second penalty was retaken was any of Nigeria's goalkeepers feet on the line?NO.So why wasn't it retaken again?because the main issue wasn't whether one of her feet was on the line in the first place or not.It was all about France scoring and winning the match
